Default Let see some ES350 with Mod, or upgrade rims

I still need to wait until my stock rim/tires run out of tread before I change them.

Probably still have another 2k miles or so...

i would think with both cars being 5x114 it should work fine. I don't plan to lower the car and if I go with 225/18/40 it should have no rubbing issue. Maybe someone can shine some light on this.

sorry i used the wrong word..not offset i mean u know how it's a staggered setup..the rear has wider tires...i always wondered if that would be an issue
